David Rakoff
“Is there some lesson on how to be friends?
I think what it means is that central to living
a life that is good is a life that's forgiving.
We're creatures of contact regardless of whether
we kiss or we wound. Still, we must come together.
Though it may spell destruction, we still ask for more--
since it beats staying dry but so lonely on shore.
So we make ourselves open while knowing full well
it's essentially saying "please, come pierce my shell.”
David Rakoff

John Cheever
“All literary men are Red Sox fans - to be a Yankee fan in a literate society is to endanger your life.”
John Cheever

David Markson
“How can I tell what I think until I see what I say?”
David Markson, Vanishing Point

Barry Hannah
“What a bog and labyrinth the human essence is... We are all overbrained and overemotioned.”
Barry Hannah, Airships

Annie Dillard
“There is no shortage of good days. It is good lives that are hard to come by. A life of good days lived in the senses is not enough. The life of sensation is the life of greed; it requires more and more. The life of the spirit requires less and less; time is ample and its passage sweet. Who would call a day spent reading a good day? But a life spent reading -- that is a good life.”
Annie Dillard, The Writing Life: The Classic Essay Collection on the Creative Process
